ROTFLMAO, exactly what we have been saying, only a fool as yourself would go down the highway and observe a flashing signs warning of the bridge being out and detour ahead, guess what? somehow you have the inability to STOP,proceed with caution or acknowledgement..... I can only think of the old Dukes of Hazard's Mopar jumping that huge divide. You and The General Lee wreck every solitary topic you get involved with.

Come on in, take a seat.Tell me how you feel this weak.Are you cursed? Are you blessed?Are you still inside the mess?All those feelings wrapped around you,Hold you down so you can't break through.Its a trap, so don't ask. Its a shadow onYour back. It don't burn, it don't bleed,Still it cuts you at the knee.All this pressure that surrounds you,Holds you down but you know youGotta break through.

Take a breath, hold it in.Now look up, let's begin.Lesson learned, take a turn.Now you come around again,All those feelings wrapped around you,Hold you down so you can't break through.

Time is up, take your shot.'Cause your story's all you got.Don't back down, don't say no.Just stay still and let go.All this pressure that surrounds you,Holds you down but you knowYou've gotta break through.

[Chorus]

(You can't kill me with kindness, no I don't buy it.)Strip down, show your flesh and bone.'Cause now I own you.

Jimmy Cliff added his voice to the profusion of magic birthed in 1969. Now in his 60's, Cliff's song remains strong in this performance. One great tune.

Cliff was only 21 when he wrote and recorded the song in 1969, stating he wrote the song due to the trouble he was having making it as a successful musical artist after originally finding tremendous success in his home of Jamaica beginning at age 14 before moving to the United Kingdom. Cliff stated, "When I came to the UK, I was still in my teens. I came full of vigor: Iím going to make it, Iím going to be up there with the Beatles and the Stones. And it wasnít really going like that, I was touring clubs, not breaking through. I was struggling, with work, life, my identity, I couldnít find my place; frustration fueled the song." Regarding the line, 'wandering I am lost, as I travel along the White Cliffs of Dover,' Cliff stated, "...that came from the number of times I crossed the channel to the continent. Most of the time it was France but sometimes it was Germany. It was a very frustrating time. I came to England with very big hopes and I saw my hopes fading. And that song came out of that."
